Introduction to multi-omics data integration
Date: 12 - 15 February 2019
With the increase in the volume of data across the whole spectrum of biology, more researchers are looking to integrate omics data of different types to inform hypotheses and biological questions. This may also include public domain data, which can provide added value to data derived through researcher’s own work and inform experimental design. This introductory course will highlight the challenges that researchers face in integrating multi-omics data sets using biological examples. The course will focus on the use of public data resources and open access tools for enabling integrated working, with an emphasis on data visualisation. Please note this course does not cover statistical approaches for data integration.
